Asthama and cough , mucus cough

Question

Asked for Male, 29 Years

I have been diagnosed with Asthama and have constant mucus cough since months. The cough varies from bad to worse and comes back to normal but the mucus is constant...white sticky. Please advise as I am taking Foracort forte twice a day and a vitamin tablet. That has helped but why isn't my mucus cough going permanently.
